Absolutely a must have.
This is an absolute must have with the leaf vacuum. I was able to easily vacuum up leaves in our flower bed, leaves were wet and too heavy to blow with leaf blower. This hose and handle made easy and quick work cleaning up all these leaves.
Vacuum Hose
Very satisfied with this product. It makes short work of work of windrowed leaves, as well as picking up leaves in flower beds. The only reason I gave it a four star rating rather than a five is because it really needs a retainer system to hold the 6" x 8" hose adapter to the 8" hose coming from the vacuum. I have provided a picture of the workaround I use involving nylon webbing with grommets (Note: the example shown is between the Deck Adapter and the 8" hose, but the same methodology applies for the Vacuum Hose application). Use two sets of nylon webbings (both with grommets preferably, but you can also use nylon webbing with a loop in it, as shown for one side), 180 degrees apart from one another. The webbings are held in place by the hose clamps on either side of the connection....one on the 8" hose and the other on the 6" Vacuum Hose. With the hose connected, use heavy duty zip ties to pull both of the sets of nylon webbings together. This workaround to hold the two pieces of hose together has proven to function extremely well. However, it would have been nice if this problem had been addressed in the design of the equipment. That said, I am extremely happy with my purchase and highly recommend the DR leaf vacuum system and this Vacuum Hose kit.
A bit bulky
I used the hose and it is on the hard to handle side with the hose being so stiff maybe if you people went to a smaller hose it may be easier
A useful option, but hode is too stiff in cold weather
This hose is great to pick up leaves in corners and along the foundation. But is became difficult to handle at temperatures approaching freezing the material gets too stiff. It takes two people to maneuver it and moving to a different location. There is no way to quickly remove it from the vacuum, so you need to find a way to 'attach' it to the cart, we tried straps but it is difficult, will try to make some hooks on the side of the cart to lay the hose into when moving
Extra hose
Works great to clean up flower beds and any place the mower can't get to.

Q.What does the vaccine come with? When it’s delivered is it already to hook up to your riding lawnmower with hoses and mower deck adapter? I don’t want to purchase this and then have to order more things to make it work. The only accessory I think I would need extra is the hose vac to get leaves and pine needles in hard to reach places.
A.Thank you for your question about our vacuum. Since we do not create vaccine's. Our Leaf and Lawn Vacuum comes with a standard length of hose. It does not come with an extension hose or the deck adapter or any other accessories. There is assembly required that typically takes two people.

Q.A previous QA indicates the hose id 6" in diameter. Looks like 8 in the picture which would explain the reviews indicating it's too heavy. Is it really 6 and if not, is a 6" available?
A.Thank you for your question. The hose is a 6" diameter.
